In this episode, we are joined by Zuhra Bahman, the Afghanistan country director for the peacebuilding NGO Search for Common Ground.!
Why This Female NGO Leader Decided to Return to Afghanistan
I last spoke with Zuhra Bahman in early September She happened to be out of Afghanistan on a business trip when the Taliban overran Kabul a few weeks prior.
Despite the apparent danger and uncertainty, Zuhra Bahman told me that she was eager to get back home and return to work as the Afghanistan country director for the peace building NGO Search for Common Ground.
Today, she is back in Kabul, which is where I caught up with her for the conversation you are about to hear
And she kicks off explaining why and how she returned home.
We then have a long conversation about how she navigates her life and work as a professional woman in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan, and how her work on peace building issues continues under the new political order in Afghanistan.
